Damn, I Awakened With A Horror System!

Soon, after creating potions for about 10 minutes, Leo leisurely cut his connection toward the lamp below the cauldron...

Causing its blazing flame to extinguish before he calmly opened the cauldron's cap.

In an instant, the tantalizing yet strange scent of the liquified herbs within the interior of the cauldron swiftly permeated through the enclosed space of the shop. Making the teenager instinctively sniff the air, causing him to groan in bliss upon sensing its beneficial effects on his body.

Leo, unaware of what was happening to the teenager opposite him, unhurriedly took out dozens of empty bottles from his inventory.

Using his telekinetic ability as he began guiding the blueish liquid toward the opened bottles within the atmosphere, dyeing the damp space inside the building with their mesmerizing blueish light.

"Huff~ Finally, it was done."

Heaving a light breath of relief, Leo leisurely manipulated the bottles toward the counter of the shop before casting his soul scan toward one of them. Wanting to see if his created potion was passable in the eyes of the system.

Ding!

[ Limited Time Cultivation Potion ( Ungraded - Elite) (81% purity): An ungraded potion that could increase one's cultivation speed for a limited period of time!

Note 1: You can drink it safely!

Note 2: Limitedly increase one's cultivation speed upon consumption by 350% for 18 hours! (Only effective below the Foundation realm.)

Note 3: It can only be consumed once per 3 days! ]

...

"Good, not bad for the first try! If I again created another set of it, its purity would probably increase by at least 3-5%."

A not-so-bad leap of increased in Leo's mind. Although the increase might not be high, it would still raise the capability of the potion by another 25-50 percent, enough to make any Mortal realm cultivator go mad if they learned about it.

Usually, with the limited number of potion masters within the town and their lack of experience and knowledge regarding potions.

The purity of their ungraded potions usually could only reach 50-75 percent, sometimes 79-80 percent if the goddess luck above grazed their beings with its aura. Hence, having a purity of 81 percent could already be regarded as a legend within the town.

Unfortunately, Leo was currently unaware of it, or else he might use this to his advantage, allowing him to hasten his growth speed by folds.

"Since you're my first client today, I will give it to you for 25 Earth Gold. How does it sound?"

Soon, after cleaning his beloved cauldron, Leo shot a glance toward the teenager near the wooden door, staring at its dumbfounded face as he couldn't help but snap his fingers.

Snap!

Waking the teenager in the process as it slowly shifted its gaze from the dozens of new bottles on the counter toward the pale, mysterious man in the center of the shop.

Couldn't help but release a light gasp of shock as his luck premonition began pointing toward the dozen bottles in the distance, suddenly ignoring the thin white piece of paper floating above Leo.

"Hey kid, are you okay?"

Seeing the empty yet puzzled gaze of the teenager, Leo couldn't help but ask in concern. Panicking inside as he began to ponder if his Jinx skill somewhat affected the mind of the child, causing it to rot somehow.

"This couldn't do; if people somehow learned about it, then my business would further degrade... Should I burn his body so no one would learn about it?

"No, it's not the solution either. Right! I should try to heal his mind!"

Book of Tome: Imprinted Skills

Thinking of it and feeling that his anxiety somewhat clouded his mind, not allowing him to think properly, Leo hurriedly summoned a tome from the void.

Hurriedly flipping it over as he stared at one of its pages.

"Advanced Healing."

In an instant, upon mumbling the words within the pages, a bright green light suddenly emitted from the book within his grasp, transforming into a thick pillar of light before shrouding the child nearby.

Making the teenager's eyes widen in shock before groaning afterwards, feeling an unknown warm energy coursing through his being as some of his impurities are excreted through his mouth.

Dyeing the floor with disgusting gooey substance, replacing the refreshing scent within the atmosphere with a nauseating smell.

"This..."

Ding!

[ Congratulations on partially cleansing your body

+5 overall attribute stats. ]

...

"Are you okay now?"

Seeing that the child finally reacted normally, Leo heaved a sigh of relief. Closing the ancient tome within his grasp as it hurriedly turned incorporeal, vanishing afterwards upon sensing that its purpose was already done.

(The "Book of Tome: Imprinted Skills" was an epic skill that Leo gained after fusing two of his nonexistent skills. Creating a superb skill due to pure luck that has the capability of imprinting skills on its pages...

Allowing him to use the skills imprinted within the pages of the book in an instant while only consuming 25% of their original cost.

Unfortunately, after using the skills within the pages, they would immediately vanish toward the void, making the specific page empty again.

Furthermore, with its current rarity, Leo could only imprint 1 epic skill and 10 skills with a rarity that ranges from rare +3 and below to the book. Only allowing him to fully use the skill in case of an emergency.

As for why he used it toward the child in the distance, Leo was currently unaware of the reason, only blaming it for the sudden anxiety that he felt.)

"Ye-yes, I feel good right now. Thank you for your help."

The teenager, seeing the disgusting liquid that he puked on the ground, couldn't help but show an embarrassed expression on his face.

Taking out a set of clothes from his inventory before attempting to clean up his mess.

Unfortunately, as he was about to bend his front knee in order to clean the dirt on the floor, a strange force suddenly lifted the bubbling liquid beneath, drifting within the atmosphere before vanishing outside the door.

Creak!

...

"Done! This is the potion that you were asking for: 25 Earth Gold per bottle."

Finally ridding the frightening scent that lingered within the room, Leo leisurely tossed a single potion bottle toward the teenager, making the latter panic a little before stretching his hand.

Soon, upon hiding the bottle within his inventory, the teenager hurriedly took out a pouch from the void, taking out 25 Earth Gold within before putting it toward the table nearby.

Bowing toward Leo's figure before hurriedly exiting the shop, fleeing the place at swift speed... To the point that his figure vanished in Leo's senses in a short second.

Ding!

[ Congratulations on selling your first potion personally!

+5,000 horror points!

+6 free attribute points!

+1 low tempering stone! ]

"Not bad..."

Soon, after one hour of staring toward the void, still hadn't been visited by his next fated customer. Leo unhurriedly took out his black cauldron within his inventory, caressing its rough surface as he couldn't help but unfold a strange expression to himself.

Other than his bronze knuckle that started rotting within his inventory, this black cauldron of his was the longest item he was using... It began to thin due to his prolonged and non-stop usage.

If he used it for another month, he believed that it would collapse from exhaustion, making it cease to exist in the world.

"Sigh~ I didn't expect that I would grow fond of you."

Leo mumbled under his breath, not caring about the strange glances the gray wisp giving him as he took out the tempering stone within his inventory.

Compared to the enlightenment stone that was flickering with silver light, the tempering stone in Leo's grasp was giving off a weak glow of sunlight.

Furthermore, it was quite warm to touch, akin to being embraced by the morning sun after a cold night, capable of removing the lingering coldness within one's physique.

"Since it was low tempering stone, using it to my Soul Bound Weapon to further improve its strength was already useless. It's better if I use it to my cauldron since I might not find another elite rarity cauldron in the town...

"It would surely reach the rare rarity after upgrading it, allowing it to endure much higher temperatures in the process."

Taking a deep breath, Leo hurriedly commanded his system with his mind, causing the tempering stone and the black cauldron within his hand to vanish in an instant.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Entering an unknown space as the system lightly asks him to patiently wait.

Shing!

Soon, after an unknown period of time, a bright, blinding light suddenly appeared in Leo's front. Instinctively making his eyes close as he patiently waited till the burning light subsided.

At the same time, as he was waiting for the intense light to vanish, a sudden sound of notification rang within his consciousness. Causing him to hurriedly look at the corner of his mind before reading the information it held.

Ding!

[ Congratulations on upgrading your Black Cauldron (Elite) to the Exquisite Black Cauldron (Rare)! ]
